The Happiest Place on Earth!

We are back from our trip to Disneyland. It was rather cold. That's OK though. I'm a much happier person in the cold. I don't handle hot really well. We had a lot of fun. Here are some pictures. I'll post some other pics tomorrow.I have this fascination with Alice in Wonderland. Here are the boys in a "Kodak moment" tea cup. We also got to ride the Alice in Wonderland ride. I love it.Here are the boys to the side of Sleeping Beauty's castle. After being at Disney World in November, the boys had a hard time readjusting to the tiny castle at Disneyland. Cinderella's castle, at the Magic Kingdom, at Walt Disney World is much taller.Here are Riley and Quinn with Dad. This big ball thing (from Pirates of the Caribbean) is on Tom Sawyer's Island. I usually skip the island, but the boys really wanted me to see all of the newly added pirate stuff. It was pretty cool, and the boys had a blast. Jack Sparrow was there, protecting his treasure.Dumbo. A classic. Our Dumbo days are almost over. This was the ride we always went to first. Not anymore. How sad is that? Our boys are growing up. On to faster rides (well, sort of).Here's the whale from Pinocchio. You go through the whale's mouth on the Storybook Land ride. See the little boat in its mouth? See the tour guide standing up? I didn't want you to think I had taken a picture of someone being eaten by a giant whale-I think that would be a snuff film. The whale has a hole in his other end. He sneezed so hard, his tail came off.
